It's been a while......

It's has been quite a number of days since I posted any items due to the lack of time, hmmm. My day begins quite early or used too. Normally, I am up just before six am, shower, let my hair air dry somewhat. My hair is very thick and takes 15 minutes to blow dry so I shower early and let it room dry so by time I make my way to dress and fancy up for the day, it takes only five minutes to blow dry. Since leaving my job last year, my routine morphed into a late sleeper, 7 am, at best leaving little or no time to write in blissful peace and quiet. Once 7:30 rolls around the boys are up and Hot Husband is on his way to work. Some days I am out the door with the boys. As most moms know life is quite hectic between 4pm and 9pm with preparing dinner, homework, baths, laundry, the list goes on. By time I have time to myself it's 9:30pm, 10pm. I tried a couple of times to write in bed with my laptop or note pad to no avail, my eyes slowly close, nodding off several times before calling it quits and going to bed.

So I am basically blaming my busy life as a mom and wife, aaagghhhh. That reminds me of Miranda in the Sex in the City movie, using her career, her son and her husband as an excuse for her woes.

But it's not only that, there are times when everything is perfect except the words and ideas do not flow. So, today, I am going to look for ways to stay motivated and find time during my day to jot down some of my ideas.
